Early life and education


Adams was born in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. His mother is Rowan Marsh.[4] His father is journalist Claude Adams.[5] He attended Northern Secondary School.[6]


Following his parents' divorce, Adams moved from Toronto to Los Angeles at age 19, where he attended the University of Southern California, earning a B.F.A.[6] After earning the Jack Nicholson Award in 2004, which provided scholarships directly funded by the eponymous actor to outstanding performers at the school and earning his BFA, he immediately began working on a production of Edward Albee's The Goat, or Who is Sylvia? at the Mark Taper Forum.[7]



Acting career



Television


Adams appeared in episodes of Cold Case, Pretty Little Liars, Jack and Bobby, and has since had roles in Lost, Friday Night Lights, Without a Trace, Commander in Chief, Heartland, Ghost Whisperer, NCIS, Cupid, Luck, Raising the Bar, Legends of Tomorrow, Lie To Me and Suits.[8] He starred as twin brothers in the 2008 ABC pilot Good Behavior, executive produced by Rob Thomas.[citation needed] In 2009, he signed for the male lead in the one-hour drama The Dealership, starring opposite Tricia Helfer and William Devane.[9] His television appearances grew over the next few years, from guest appearances on Numb3rs to a recurring role as a love interest for Adrianne Palicki on Friday Night Lights and leads in TV features like the romantic comedy Christmas in Boston.[10]


In 2007, he moved up to guest appearances on top-rated shows like Lost, where he played a young man who sought out John Locke (played by Terry O'Quinn), while maintaining his presence in the Los Angeles theater scene, most notably with an award-winning production of "Marat/Sade," which he produced and directed for the Blue House Theatre Company.[11]


In 2010, Adams guest starred in Pretty Little Liars, in the 5th episode; "Reality Bites Me" as Ezra Fitz's college friend, Hardy. In summer 2011, he began starring in the co-lead role of Mike Ross in Suits on the basic-cable USA Network, after being fired from the pilot of NBC's Friends With Benefits.[12] He garnered much acclaim for his role in the series which has continued into its seventh season in 2017–18. Since Season 3, Adams has been listed as a co-producer of Suits (with co-star Gabriel Macht) and has directed some episodes. On January 30, 2018, it was announced Adams was departing from the show following the completion of its seventh season. He appeared in HBO's 2012 TV series Luck as recurring character Nathan Israel.[13]


In 2016, Adams was cast as Hourman in the TV show Legends of Tomorrow. He made an appearance in the end of Season 1 as Rex Tyler.[14][15]



Film


Adams' work in film includes supporting roles in Old School and Two: Thirteen, and lead roles in Weather Girl (a 2009 Slamdance entry) and the 2009 Berlin International Film Festival competitor Rage, directed by Sally Potter.[citation needed] In the beginning of 2018 he released his first own shortfilm, We Are Here. He wrote, directed and acted the short film together with his wife Troian Bellisario.



Personal life


Adams has been married to Pretty Little Liars star Troian Bellisario since December 2016.[16] The two met in 2009 when they were cast opposite each other in the play Equivocation.[17] Prior to his appearance on Pretty Little Liars, Adams and Bellisario had broken up; but they got back together after Adams' guest appearance on Pretty Little Liars in 2010.[18][19] On October 8, 2018, Adams announced the birth of the couple's daughter.[20]


Adams endorsed Democratic candidate Bernie Sanders in the run-up for the 2016 U.S. presidential election.[21]
